[REQ] [Kotlin] client generator support for coroutines and suspend functions

[NicolaeGP]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I am trying to generate a kotlin client using retrofit 2.6.* and make use of coroutines and suspend functions but that is not given as an option in the generator

Describe the solution you'd like

Addition of a parameter in the generator that will generate a kotlin client with coroutines and suspend functions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The addition of coroutines and suspend functions would big a big help in creating cleaner code in the applications using the generated client

Additional context

I have seen that there was a request to merge a new kotlin generator
#3135
that contained support for coroutines but instead it was decided to go with the current kotlin generator and add retrofit2 as supported library. However, those changes did not include the possibility of generating suspend functions.

Hi everyone,

I've been working on adding client generator support in kotlin retrofit 2 for coroutines and suspend functions. I will do a PR.

Hi, I've adding rx/rx2/coroutines to in retrofit2, not everybody use coroutines now, I think it will be useful for community. Can you also check my approach?
